Newton Unfiltered Chardonnay 2022

Upon first impression, the 2022 Newton Chardonnay appears vibrant and inviting, with a bright, fresh character that reflects the early harvest conditions. The initial mineral-driven notes of petrichor and flint tantalize the senses, providing a subtle complexity that hints at the wine's depth. As the wine opens up, bursts of citrus blossom, stone fruit, and ripe tropical notes of pineapple and guava come to the forefront, creating a lively and aromatic bouquet. These aromas are complemented by more complex notes of nutmeg, clove and marzipan, which reveal themselves with each swirl of the glass.

On the palate, the Chardonnay dazzles with a supple texture and a mouth-watering finish that lasts an eternity. The wine's impressive intensity and vibrancy are offset by great tension, showcasing the best qualities of the 2022 vintage. The balance of flavors and the wine's overall freshness make it an exemplary representation of Napa Valley Chardonnay.
